Fine-Tuning Development Through Antagonistic Peptides: An Emerging Theme

Jin Suk Lee et al. Trends Plant Sci. 2016 Dec.

Abstract

Peptide ligand-receptor kinase interactions have emerged as a key component of plant growth and development. Now, highly related small signaling peptides have been shown to act antagonistically on the same receptor kinase, providing new insights into how plants optimize developmental processes using competitive peptides.

Keywords: antagonistic peptide; receptor kinase; root; signaling; stomata..
